DIY itself doesn't quite escape consumerist society either way, does it?
When you spend more on a DIY object than on a store-bought substitute, whether in time or money, it's not done for practical reasons but rather for aesthetic, or worse, ethical ones. So it's folded back into a mainly middle class niche, which is also seen with Saya's example of prices driven up.
